Introduction to Complexity Theory
Introduction
[edit | edit source]Complexity theory is the study of the resources (especially computation time and memory) required by algorithms.
Learning Project Summary
[edit | edit source]- Project code:
- Suggested Prerequisites:
- Students should be familiar with the concepts of deterministic and nondeterministic computation, and formal models of computation, such as finite state automata and Turing machines.
- Students should also be familiar with the theory of formal languages
- Time investment:
- Assessment suggestions:
- School: School of Computer science
- Department: Institute for Complexity Theory
- Stream
- Level:
